  • Soooo many people complained soooo hard about every aspect of the game. The lack of map select (when another map was added), how hard the gunplay was, useless drops like clothing all around the map, insane vehicle physics. All of the reasons I loved it so much. It was such an equalizer, dropping somewhere far away and looting tons of buildings and finding a mediocre kit, getting the drop on a pro player and scoring their M4 (amazing back then) only to die to your Dacia flipping because you hit a twig.

    Gosh we really did not miss out. I yearn fondly for the early jank days, and I’m so happy I’m not alone. I quit the day they added bots and haven’t played since.


  • I loved drunk Alpha/Beta PUBG. I have almost passed out laughing with my partner in one of those motorcycles with the sidecar. Deep into a match trashed, and I’m driving us on totally flat ground, approaching a building. The bike suddenly rockets into the air for no reason, like… into the stratosphere. Did a ton of flips, both of us just glancing at each other and our screens… falls all the way back to earth and BOOM.

    ….it lands right-side-up. Somehow we’re alive. It does not bounce. It is slightly on fire, smoking. We took a lot of damage. We both get out and slowly walk into the building as we’re cracking up.




  • I think a race to the bottom is the only way in the US… shit, anything is better than the opposition they try to throw at the party of evil lawl

    I wasn’t saying streamer president immediately, but we’re for sure on track for streamer president by 2040. People love entertainer presidents (I mean…) and “streamer” or “YouTuber” is far more recognized as a parasocial-able figure to latch onto than “traditional media guy” at this point.

    Edit: oh! I meant “In CURRENT YEAR we’re not far from a streamer president” rather than “we will have one right now”—I’m sorry for my bad verbiage in my other comment!



  • I dig Maggoty but yeah, it’s super weird. Extremely Reddit-brained take, like when a beloved rapper or something dies, coming in to say “I don’t know who that is”

    Like okay that’s cool, you’re on the internet and can find out easily.

    I have no interest in US politics or streamers, but I recognize this is way bigger than “stream guy talk about politic” at this point. Cumfart is being foolish thinking “just a streamer” isn’t a big deal anymore. We’re not far from a president who was a streamer, whether we like it or don’t wanna live on this planet anymore.









  • I spent my 20s next to a booze store where this old lady worked who LOVED me for some reason and would give me and anyone I was with the senior discount all the time. Then she got in trouble and had to stop. Then she stopped giving a fuck and did it anyway, despite me and my friends telling her not to.

    I hope she’s still around and still a fuckin G
